Answer:

$1136.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for exponential growth is f(x) = a(1 + r)^x where a is the initial value, r is the growth rate, and x is the number of time intervals.

We know that Mr. Paris starts with an $1800 initial value, so we can substitute that into the equation:

f(x)=1800(1 + r)^x

We also know the time intervals is 6 months. So that can be substituted as well:

f(x)=1800(1 + r)^6

They told you that the growth rate is 8.5%, which is 0.085 of 1.

f(x)=1800(1 + 0.085)^6

Add the 2 values in the parentheses and you get 1.085

f(x)=1800(1.085)^6

Now solve.

Order of operations requires you to raise 1.085 to the 6th power before multiplying by 1800. So then you have this:

1800(1.63146751) = 2936.64152. That rounds to 2936.60

So $2936.60 is the total amount of money in the bank account, but were looking for the interest earned, which is the difference between the end value and the initial value.

$2936.60 - $1800 = $1136.60

S= R- 1/3R

The first problem s=18 r-= 6
This is how it works

Use S-= R-1/3R
12= 18-1/3(18)
12= 18-6
12=12

Entertainment Software Association would like to test if the average age of "gamers" (those that routinely play video games) is
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

"30 years or less when, in reality, the average age is more than 30 years"

Step-by-step explanation:

Type I error is produced when conclusion rejects a true null hypothesis.

The null hypothesis is

"The average gamer is more than 30 years old"

(deduced from the wording, not explicitly stated).

Then if the conclusion is "the average gamer is less than or equal to 30 years old" when in reality the average age is more than 30 years, then there is a type I error, since the null hypothesis is rejected.

Answer is D:

"30 years or less when, in reality, the average age is more than 30 years"
